The normal attack is mostly the same, but the charge attack is an overhead that hits 1 target for high damage instead of infinite targets. Like all of the elf vs solder melee weapons, it's worse at CC and better at damage

It was cool while it lasted I guess. i dig doing swift bow spam, though i'm a little concerned if they went ahead and nerfed the "free ammo when Haste activates" thing also can't say no to a bit o' backstabbery and filling the game audio with squishy noises wish she looked less like a goddamn rat though

It's a 3 hit combo with the last hit being single target, and the charge attack is a high damage overhead chop that is pretty good at wrecking storms. It's a bit faster than the 1h hammer too.

Honestly if the elf was just a confused rat trying to be accepted by this ragtag group of rat hunters, that would probably be more endearing than what we actually got.

it can gut an approaching swarm just fine in alt fire mode; my record is 9 rats in one shot.

Damage is the same as the brace of pistols. So it's an ok run and gun weapon. Not as good as the others imo since it's not hitscan and has to reload and I mainly save it for ripping roger apart anyway, but it still gets the job done

Final boss Wulfrik the Wanderer would have the best dialogue possible but sadly I really doubt they'd do it. Wulfrik's thing is he's been blessed by the chaos gods to be able to perfectly insult anyone in any language and insult them so hard it works them into a murderous frenzy. Sadly he'd probably kill all the party without breaking a sweat and they don't really like using named lore characters.

There's one of his insults in the loading screens of Total War: Warhammer and it's pretty good. Edit: Found it.

He's got magic powers, he should use them to insult the players. Tell them to go back to college, move out of their mom's basement, take up a real sport like Hockey instead of curling. And then just have the characters very very confused responses.

Just picked that back up after a spell (and purchased the stormy town dlc, though there was no one playing it.  How do I soldier well, by the way? I run a mace and shield + rifle and it feels so useless. Maybe I should go back to using the shotgun equivalent?

Use the sword and shield instead, it can charge attack three times as fast so you can CC an entire wave with it. Every other option will give you better damage in one way or another in exchange for worse CC. The handgun and repeater handgun are always good options.

Temporary link is https://discord.gg/KCeRPb I haven't had a chance to play much because my PC runs it a little chunky and also I'm in a weird timezone and last time I tried to play people weren't really around and I've got TOO MUCH other poo poo going on.

Not a huge fan of empire shotgun since he's got so many ways of dealing with hordes in melee. The handgun is a sniper rifle that will one-shot pretty much any special with a bodyshot and stormvermin with a headshot (on nm/cata) but isn't great otherwise, the repeater isn't quite as effective at special killing (less accurate, takes a couple shots to down stormvermin) and has less ammo, but is great against ogres and pretty good against hordes (on nightmare at least, where it still one-shots clanrats)

with a couple decent traits all you have to do with the repeater handgun is roll up a barrage and aim at roughly head level and you can easily decimate a battalion of stormvermin

Tbh I think they overtuned it. They made it less good as a run and gun weapon but better at basically everything else. The handgun is the best in the game at doing one thing and garbage at everything else. The repeater handgun is really good at doing that one thing and also decent to great at everything else. I would have left it where it was after 1.5, and even before that it was worth using (just not the alt fire)

The handgun is fine for sniping out specials, but as a shield using man, I am seldom in a position to use it, and there is usually one of the more range based characters around. The repeater is great at thining hordes and can kill specials decently well.

Yup. It's like playing the Heavy in TF2, but with more fancy clothes. Thanks to the goons who carried my rear end last night by the way. A+ will slay vermins again.

For the Soldier, I like the mace without the shield better than with. Your fast attacks are still wide swipes that do good for crowd control, but IIRC your charge attack is instead changed to an overhead swing that's pretty good at popping stormvermin. Add to that the +block move speed and effective dodging you get for the single one handed weapons. Of all the weapon and shield combos, I honestly think the Dwarf Axe+Shield is best since you get the crowd control effect of the charge attack and +devblow pushes, but the axe chops kill clanrats in one hit on Nightmare and is really good at chopping up stormvermin too.

The S&S hits 3 rats per normal attack which actually works great with the 10% regrowth normal it can get, and the charge attack comes out so fast that you can put one out in the time it takes to swing the mace from the M&S once. Then its charge attack is three times as fast, letting it trivially control an infinite number of rats as long as you have gathered them in front of you (this is why I harp on the importance of choke points so much) so there is really no reason to use the M&S. The hammer and shield is a reskin of the M&S and also has no purpose, since it competes with the axe and shield which has charge attacks just as fast as the S&S but also a high damage armor piercing normal attack, easily making it the best shield.

I haven't really played since before the contracts board became a thing. Is there a good up-to-date overview which traits are good for which weapons, and which weapons are now considered to be the best for each class?

Due to some really remarkable balance work, basically all weapons are good and competitive now. As for which traits are good for which weapons, that's a giant effort post and will often come down to personal preference as well. Bloodlust is good for basically everything. Did you have a particular weapon you were curious about?
